[LG Optimus 2x] PAIIITET:
latest beta 1205040904-ETaNa_STOCK_OTF-3.0.y.zip is stable?
[LG Optimus 2x] Trystan34:
What is the difference between base version and 32M ramhack version?

What are the cons on 32M ramhack version?
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
not at all, i need just modifying one kconfig option.

but first i need to know this version working for everyone and not have booting issues :)
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
the base version is using the default 128mb for the gpu

the 32mb ramhack version lowered this value to 96mb and add an extra 32mb to the system memory, so you will have ~405MB total memory instead of 373MB.

however the reboot is not working, only powered off the phone and you need to push the power button to power on.

the idea is from an another kernel developer named SetiroN, you can find more information in his topic
[LG Optimus 2x] ron_gangte:
No. I have no issues with it. :-\

Will you please build it, Vadonka..? :-)?
[LG Optimus 2x] liubangde:
i like your kernel,but sometimes when its in heave load,the kernel is not soomth like other kernels,like the cm origin one
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
if you are using the powersave version then its normal. the compcache also slowing the phone a little some case, try to disable in the init script.
[LG Optimus 2x] Buccio:
HI vadonka.. I am using the JAN12 kernel (normal version) and i don't have any problem..

My phone runs perfectly, no bsod, no fd, nothing (also the previous version)... So what you suggest to me?? Keep this or update it to last update?? :)
[LG Optimus 2x] grognaz:
with this the device froz afer about 1h when i recieved a message and opened whatsup...

do you have different frequencies/voltages in this version than in the test kernels i tried?
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
no, its the same.

however i build just the normal version for this test, no undervolt. what version you used now?
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
its up to you, updating is not necessary.
[LG Optimus 2x] ron_gangte:
Will you? :-\ :-\
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
yes, tonight i will build this version too :)
[LG Optimus 2x] orlox:
how about a 128mb shared version? will this work?
[LG Optimus 2x] temasek:
Vadonka,

U are even busier than me with > 1 compiles a day.....daily.

Lolz nice job :D
[LG Optimus 2x] Shadowchaz:
Works perfectly for me too. Using power save version with shared memory and phone is perfect (almost!)
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
not a chance...

even if i configure for 64mb shared memory the phone will very instable.

more than 32mb shared memory not good.

32mb extra memory 128mb gpu

64mb extra memory 96mb gpu

.

.

the shared memory is cant be higher than 32mb otherwise the phone wont work.

but even the 32mb shared version have some issues...
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
thx! :)

if this version will work for everyone i take a little break :)
[LG Optimus 2x] hardmankam:
Vadonka,

I for one still have bootup problems with your kernel. I have tried all 4 different versions

- no zcache

- no zcache no zram

- no zcache no zram no compaction

- 120113

all with no success. My phone is stuck at the LG screen upon bootup. I needed to pull the battery and re-flash another kernel to make it work. (SwiftExtreme and Stock Kernel work in my case)

it could be just my phone because my phone could not bootup on many other ROMs and Kernels.

Anyway, keep up the good work.
[LG Optimus 2x] econ:
What's your ROM?
[LG Optimus 2x] hardmankam:
I have tried

1) temasek's P204-35 and

2) CM7 Nightly 202

both failed to bootup. (Both I have format /system, /cache and freshly flashed the ROMs and then flashed this Kernel, then reboot and stuck on LG screen)

But like I said in my other post, my phone only works with certain ROMs and dont work on some ROMs.

work: CM7.2 Kang, Temasek Kang, Modaco, Stock LG

Dont work: Topogigi, gueste2x
[LG Optimus 2x] snel76:
can't tell you about stock version but oc version is very stable for me, no boot problems, no r-w issues on system, no bsod or sod.
[LG Optimus 2x] alakyr:
look like that....but i got a random bsod before on the train...

done the test? the result? =P
[LG Optimus 2x] sKweezr:
Finally working!

Installed the latest clockworkmod (5.0.2.8), installed the latest stable release and...

Its working! No boot problem, no system r/w issues (when using V6 supercharger), and no SOD up till now, 24 hours after installing.

Keep up the good work Vadonka!

By the way, ETaNa app doesn't get installed with this latest version?
[LG Optimus 2x] kennbo82:
Hi Vadonka,

thank you very much for the 03.05. release. I use:

BB+RIL 10d

Temasek Kang 99

Your OC Kernel 03.05.

Antutu CPU Master

And it's greaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat! No problem, good battery, calls work without problem, etc. I love it! :)

(I saw others have call problems with 03.05. one? Me not)

Best regards
[LG Optimus 2x] pidocchio:
a little question...

in the 3.0.y version... the google's snappy zram conversion, instead of the default lzo one, is used by default when i enable the compcache or i've to do some more (hidden) steps?
[LG Optimus 2x] reginickneo:
It was single, just a fail in the forward porting from v21y. The latest beta work without issues. ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
Don't know if there ever was a case to close, but it would help to compare the same temps. Chaozbr and I were talking about CPU-temps, while you measured battery temp.

Battery-temp of 43.8 is above recommended temp, btw.
[LG Optimus 2x] chaozbr:
I entered the topic to say this, and I think the phone of the tester friend gets hotter than mine, mine goes only to 40°C batt temp, I only imagine CPU temps.

I'm saying about temps, because many of us, try to use always the maximum CPU clock, and this can make us broke our phones, ofc I can be wrong, because I didn't know too much.

Thanks
[LG Optimus 2x] yukkio:
Please help,I can't install any kernel since 25 April, oc or stock. I did all that I know: format system, re init system...

Thank you.

Br
[LG Optimus 2x] reginickneo:
Vadonka, I think something is wrong with the private messages. I ask if anyone could answer that what should I set at tweakaio app CPU1 on/off mhz? How many?
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
this blur lines is normal, if the display panel heated up a bit it will be wanish.
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
stress test, same condition:

kernel 2.6.32.y

kernel 3.0.y

the explanation about the battery temperarture:

i have a several battery for the o2x. one of my battery is a chep refactored model. it doesn't provide the proper temperature reading, so the phone uses one of the internal sensor for the battery temperature. in that case the phone show me the battery is around 40 celsius, but i touch the battery with my hand and its not so heat. if i used the original LG battery, the battery temp is around 25-28 celsius.

so if you experienced high battery temperature try to remove the back panel and touch the battery. it is really hot? most of the time not the battery heated up but the cpu what is located the upper side of the phone behind the rear camera.
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
While you're on the subject, do you have any insight into what "/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpu_temp" actually shows?

I'm simply trying to find out how accurate it is, so it would be good to know where the number comes from, if it's a sensor in the CPU, on the motherboard, or a calculated value from another sensor further away.

I could look at the source myself and find out, but in this particular case I'd like to simply ask the expert.
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
i dont have heating issues :)

by the way, the kernel 3.0.y provide better battery life like the 2.6.32.y

at least under heavy stress :)

im using my latest beta version
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
Let me rephrase:

I am making a torture test app. I will have to make an emergency stop if the cpu gets too hot.

Do you know what the cpu_temp value (/sys/...../cpufreq/cpu_temp) is collected from?
[LG Optimus 2x] powwow88:
Hm, so the 3.0.y has definitely better battery life.

A few days ago my battery overheated while it was charging and i was watching video on the phone. It was 43°C i checked it in secret menu (*#*#4636#*#*) when i felt it very warm. That was in the evening, so i opened the window and put the phone close to it after that the temp. decreased by 10°C.

Btw. What is the name of the theme what you're using?
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
SteelBlue for CM7
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
not exactly, but i can check out the sensors if you need detailed informations

edit:

here is what you need, this will provide the cpu_temp value.

as i see the nvodm read the right sensor value (hOdmTcore)

int pTemp = 0;
NvOdmTmonTemperatureGet(pDtt->hOdmTcore, &pTemp);
return sprintf(buf, "%i\n", pTemp);
[LG Optimus 2x] pidocchio:
:D
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
Thanks, that's exactly the information I needed.
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
What lanugage is that?
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
That would be regular C.
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
Okay, makes sense. I never really came along with C, memory allocation, stacks, pointerss etc. Java is a lot more straightforward hehe (but ofc it makes totally sense to use C here, I'm aware of the advantages).

@vadonka: I think you could include some beginners instructions into the first post with all steps included that you would recommend (for which kernel version to choose, ram hack, tweaks, recommended OTF values etc.). People who aren't reading here regularly might have problems to know what to choose.

just something like:

beginners recommended instructions:

- download xxxxxxx-ETaNa_OC_OTF-3.0.y.zip

- flash via ROM Manager

- reboot

- open terminal manager, type su

- type rh 48

and so on.

what do you think?

Edit: Oh and another thing: your download mirror is pretty much outdated (I know it's not provided by you, but if he isn't updating it anymore I think you should remove it from the OP).

Edit2: Some more questions:

- is it possible to include other gouvenors to the kernel, like smartassv2?

- what are your recommendations for the CM7 Cyanogenmod Performance page? Particularly compcache and surface dithering
[LG Optimus 2x] chaozbr:
Tyrm do you think that we are looking a wrong temp until now?

I really need directions in CM7 Performance page, I flashed it but simply it appears that can do better. About RAMHack, I read elsewhere that it can bug some games, it's true? Because I never use high multitask, but I'm a hard gamer.
[LG Optimus 2x] tonyp:
See first post. RAM hack above 48mb can create those errors.

Not sure if enabling RAM hack for 3D games is a good idea though - what's more important in games, GPU memory or RAM? Anyone knows?
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
No, I don't have any reason to believe that.

I suspect the reported temps are a few degrees too high, which can easily happen with external sensors (or the code decoding the sensor-info.) Source code points to an ADT7461 sensor.

I don't know a lot about this, but what it means for me is that I'll give the user a little more leeway when it comes to adjusting which temperature to set as the abort-threshold.
[LG Optimus 2x] wongtpl:
Thanks vadonka!

Really enjoy using the kernel!

Now using 48MB ram hack and -25mV for from 216mhz to 1015mhz

So far so good.

My O2X:

3.0.30-ETaNA_OC_OTF

gueste2x v3.2 CM7.2 RC0

[LG Optimus 2x] slebit:
I am using your kernel for the first time now since I flashed temaseks cm7-build yesterday. I think your kernel is wonderful. I have awesome battery life so far despite overclock. Thank you vadonka!
[LG Optimus 2x] reginickneo:
Anyone?
[LG Optimus 2x] antec123:
did somebody realize system mount becomes R/W when the phone startup??

with latest kernel 03may
[LG Optimus 2x] emmanuelcassar:
what's the difference with having a battery driver kernel and without.. does battery driver kernel has more battery time?
[LG Optimus 2x] hadi_rena:
-- Deleted -- Wrong info given... thank to TrymHansen for correcting me :)

Please use vadonka's one :D
[LG Optimus 2x] slider5000:
Help!

Hey,

i wanna start ETaNa Kernel´s TweakAIO, but there is an error and the app close.

com.culblueswan

what´s wrong?
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
816000/860000
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
delete the /data/tweakaio/tweakaio.conf file then reboot
[LG Optimus 2x] slider5000:
these folder istn´t on my phone.

i created in data folder "tweakaio" now and reboot the phone, but same problem.
[LG Optimus 2x] lucfig:
I am using 800000/790000

Just a question, do these values work on the non oc version? I know the undervolt do not work, but what else in the app don't work?
[LG Optimus 2x] @dap:
New 0503 kernel flashed and booted successfully -thanks, Vadonka! :D
[LG Optimus 2x] reginickneo:
I read that the off freq should be higher than on.
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
Sorry, this is incorrect. It is the other way round.

You need to think of Min CPU 1 On as "The minimum frequency at which CPU1 STAYS on, go below and it turns OFF"

and Max CPU 1 Off as "The maximum frequency at which CPU1 STAYS off, go above and it turns ON."

If you don't believe me, you can download Myrt OTF which allows you to set the parameters AND test how they behave in real-time.

Myrt OTF uses maxcpu1off as the ON frequency and vice versa. You'll find that's the way it works.

---------- Post added at 10:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:48 PM ----------

As long as the kernel is an OTF-version, they will work.
[LG Optimus 2x] tomislav177:
Vadonka.

First of all your kernel is great. But I have one question. There is a thread about fast AC charging wile connected to usb port kn a PC or a car charger.

For me this is important because I am most of the day in car or at the job.

Charging phone over the usb or car charger is pain in the a....s :) Not enough juice to run for example gps.

This would be great if it can be integrated in your kernel, and this would enable for phone to use full power of charger.

Thx in advance.
[LG Optimus 2x] slider5000:
there is no folder like that :/

should i reinstall the app? if yes, can s.o. send me the .apk?
[LG Optimus 2x] mironiko:
Vadonka, greetings from Novi Sad, Serbia! Been following your thread from the day I got my first custom ROM on my O2X (MIUI, back then) and ETaNa is the kernel I use since then. I finally collected 10 posts here, so I can share my experience with ETaNa, as I admire your work very much. I love the community we have around O2X here, but I especialy like your and temasek's work.

So, I'll just reffer to the latest few weeks with ETaNa, the experience before that was superb.

From one moment I decided to stop continuously flashing new temasek's KANGs and use CM7.2 RC1 until temasek's 100th edition. :) I however still wanted to update your kernel regularly. I had 120402_LOC_Lite version for some time, patiently waiting for you to take care of all of the issues on the new 3.0.y version... ;)

I finally flashed the 120427_OC version and was completely amased with how it worked, in the begining. :) However, some issues came up.

First of all, I never had overheating problem with 2.6.x verions, careless of the ROM or whatever. But, they showed up with the new kernel. The only game I ever play is FMH2012 and it only heated a bit earlier, just as it should, but drove my device to hell-heat on 3.0.y in only like 15mins... :( Also, the overheating appeared (but not as when playing) whenever the screen was on for more than half an hour - with 2.6.x it would never ever heat up. I always use 1.2 GHz as my max CPU frequency.

Another thing, battery life was a bit shorter on 3.0.y, but only like 5% worse, so that wouldn't be a problem. But the heating was really awfull so I reverted to 120427 version I had before. Overheating isn't really good for the hardware, AFAIK, so I'll wait 'till you make everything just fine with 3.0.y too... ;)

Sorry for the big post, and thank you very much for your work and for making so many of us keeping our O2X and not even thinking of changing it for some time! You made it so much better... :)

[LG Optimus 2x] cesarguaro:
great job man... im having a problem with my battery it show a percent of duration and later show more than before its strange is like if raise the duration and later show normal use... im using temasek 99 with your 3.0 kernel

for example it show 40% left.... i use it a little and down to 35% (normal)... but after a while of no use it show 41% left.. hehehe i dont understand
[LG Optimus 2x] babaandnana:
That is the normal behavior of the version with DS battery driver.
[LG Optimus 2x] cesarguaro:
thanks for the answer bro... so this is normal right? and the duration will show eventually the status of the battery until get the complete uncharged...??
[LG Optimus 2x] antec123:
yes, see the OP first page. it's called funky battery reading.

so, no one realize that /system partition mounted r/w on first startup on your phone?? i don't understand with 3.0.y kernel why the /system partition always /rw by the default.

if i compare to temasek kernel with his 2704 kernel the default mount system always /ro.

:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:
[LG Optimus 2x] hadi_rena:
Thank You for correcting :o just downloaded your tool and give some test and I see my mistake... BTW can your tool co-exist with etana tool ?
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
In theory yes, I think it should be alright if you always exit it with the back-button. It's explained in post 2 in the Myrt OTF thread.
[LG Optimus 2x] csunny95:
After flashing the oc version of the latest etana kernel. There are gitches and stucking when playing flash video such as youtube. Is anyone realise the same problems?:confused:
[LG Optimus 2x] hadi_rena:
Using Flash Player 11 ? If yes then try to downgrade to Flash Player 10 (search in adobe site for older version). AFAIK It is ROM related not kernel because similar problem have been posted in temasek unofficial build long time ago.
[LG Optimus 2x] csunny95:
thx a lot, Problems fixed
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
Updated, details in the op.

defference from the latest beta:

- add wkpark battery overheat patch

this is only a temperature adjustment, so the charging will be deactivated sooner if the phone heated up while in charge mode:

critical overheat threshold decreased from 55 celsius to 46

overheat threshold decreased from 52 celsius to 45

temperature to usb500 threshold decreased from 45 celsius to 40

affected the normal and the DS battery driver too
[LG Optimus 2x] sKweezr:
Hot!

Well, woke up this morning to a PIPING HOT phone with BSOD. Yes, I am talking "how to fry an egg on your phone" ;-)

But let's try the release of today and see...
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
that was a charging sod

this patch what i mentioned in the previous post can help to avoid that
[LG Optimus 2x] slider5000:
i need the .apk from etana tweak :confused::confused::confused:
[LG Optimus 2x] antec123:
there is already etana tweak io.apk in the kernel zip, and it automatically install when you flash it..
[LG Optimus 2x] slebit:
There is an apk in the zip file you flash. It's installed when you flash it.
[LG Optimus 2x] IDan1109:

yeah. but my app is broken

i cannot open it.

there is an error !

and the folder data/tweak... wasn´t there too, so i created a new one. but same problem. need help!
[LG Optimus 2x] Cydras:
I would install the new Kernel from 6 May, but it hangs:

trying to re-initialize system partition

Its not going forward. What can i do?

Edit: I have downloaded 1205060954-ETaNa_STOCK_OTF-3.0.y.zip

I have pulled out the battery and my phone boots up.
[LG Optimus 2x] hadi_rena:
Etana Tweak AIO only controlling UV part not OC. This app also controlling OTF part

Have you wait for some time ? This process can be take a lot of time because it's backup your system partition then restore it back. Also make sure you have a lot of free space in SD card
[LG Optimus 2x] Cydras:
I have waited about 10 minutes and i have 4,3GB of free space.

Should i wait longer? Then i'm gonna try again.

[LG Optimus 2x] emmanuelcassar:
What does the Battery Driver Actually do?
[LG Optimus 2x] hadi_rena:
Min CPU1 On = 710000

Max CPU1 Off = 730000

Forget to tell: reboot after changes these value from etana app (because these value set when boot). If you want immediately effect please user 'HorsePower 2x OF Kernel' app from market or MyrtOTF
[LG Optimus 2x] vadonka:
i split out the OP post to three different post

the first is the main (primary) branch, currently the 3.0.y "stable"

all of the important information is located there

the second post is the 3.0.y "experimental"

the future beta versions changelog and information will be located here

the third post is the 2.6.32.y branch

it is the old kernel what is marked as discontinued, but i decide that not leave this release, so i change the flag to "long term" :) few updates will be available in the future, and the main linux version follow of course.

and i have a request for you guys:

if you miss something from the op post's (howto, info, etc..) please send me a private message with the desired information text. im not soo good at english so i will be happy if you guys formulated the text's.

THX!

i keep up the good work, its a promise ;)
[LG Optimus 2x] alakyr:
great work!

i have a question about the profiles (i have asket it several time but no answer)

i have set a profile for the:

screen off (216-324 governor powersafe)

in call (216-655 governor performance)

battery < 25% (216-816 governor powersafe)

screen on (216-1015 governor performance)

this last profile is necessary to set the frequency at the woke up or is included in the kernel this control?

and anyway you have some suggestion to improve this like remove profile included in the kernel or anything else?
[LG Optimus 2x] Cydras:
What is check disk? I use CWM 5.0.2.7 R2.

[LG Optimus 2x] buedi:
Hey,

I had exactly the same issue like you! Vadonka figured out my problem while analyzing my logs! Reason is the CWM touch! Use the old one 5.0.2.0 because the touch is generating faulty ext4 partitions!
